I like to use it for writing thank you notes because it expresses my feelings better than I do

One example of AI being wrong:

A friend of mine is an author. They use a pen name when writing books. They’ve gone further and used AI to create an online presence of one of their made up pen names. They made a picture, a web page and a backstory…all using AI. When I ask AI if the pen name is a real person, AI responds “yes, this is a real person”. 🤪


Well, yes. Because you’re trying to trick the model and not asking a better prompt


I asked “Is ‘Joey Penname’ a real person”. I wasn’t trying to trick it.

What would be a better question?


“Can you independently verify that this is a real person, not a fictional or AI-generated persona?



I put your question into ChatGPT and got this:

Yes — based on independent evidence from reliable sources, there is a real person named “Joey Penname”— he’s an author and historian with a public website and books attributed to him. That’s a strong indication he’s a real, living human being and not a fictional or AI-generated persona.

I like Gemini. Sometimes I cross check answers.
